he so cruel. But. please believe
me. the world is full of cruel
people. I know because a dear
friend of mine was the ',good-
natured" object of much fun-
poking due to a physical defect.
On numerous occasions I saw
him laugh off the jokes. I mar-
velled at his ability to remain
unperturbed. Even I. who knew
him well, was unaware that peo-
ple were getting to him. Yester-
day he committed suicide_ The
note he left made it plain. He
couldn't take it any longer.
Thank you for allowing me to
have my say. — A GRIEF
STRICKEN FRIEND.
Dear Ann Landers: I felt.
sorry for the woman whose hus-
band drives like a maniac. And
now, may I give you a word-by-
word description of our drive
last Sunday? The following is a
monologue by my wife. 1 did not
utter one word.
"You are driving too fast.
Slow down. The car behind you
wants to pass. Get back in your
own traffic lane. You forgot to
turn your light signal off. Step
on the gas or we will be hit
from the rear. Open the window,
I am suffocating. What is that
knocking in the motor? Slow
down, I think I hear a police
siren or an ambulance or some-
thing. Did you have a martini
at lunch when I was in the
ladies' room? You drive like
you are drunk."
I know you don't approve of
violence, but don't you feel in
this case I would have been
justified in hitting her just
once?—WISHING TO BE EX-
CUSED.
Dear Wishing: I can under-
stand how a man, under the con-
ditions described, might be
driven to the brink, but belting
a woman is out. Most husbands
say "Yes, dear" and think
about something else. You can,
too.

Mrs. Russel Ross, secretary
and the treasurer, Mrs. John-
ston Conn, gave their reports.
The topic, "Miracles" was
introduced by Mrs. Donald Watt
with a poem, She spoke of the
miracle of spring when we
plant a seed and expect it to
grow, but we know only God
can make the seed grow by pro-
viding warmth, sunshine and
rain.
That miracles happen in
people's lives was illustrated by
the story of a young girl, hun-
gry for love, who married at
the age of le. They had four
children. The young father,
tired of responsibilities, drank
heavily and the young wife be-
came a nagging, unhappy com-
panion. One day a friend ask-
ed her for a cup of coffee and
Bible study. She became kind
and sympathetic towards her
husband with the help received
from God who performed a mie

Dear Friend: I hope needle-

hint. It saddens me when I hear
brutal remarks that are sup-
posed to pass for humor. And
there's a good bit of it lately.
Thank you for writing.
